#2 How does that compare with other pants? Maybe grass skirts are the answer? Or fig leaves...?

#3 My jeans are all about 10 years old, so they're recycled every time I wear them.

Not sure about the CO2 part, maybe CH4?

These people are bloody nuts. On the up side jeans might help produce plant food gas.

#9 First, its Daily Mail, which is as retarded as a Panda on a heavy metals diet.

Well thats it really. No need to keep reading after the first Covid article.

So jeans, or any product, certain energy goes into getting those pants on you. Each wear then makes the energy per product less. 10 energy, 5 wears, 2 energy per wear. 10 energy, 20 wears, 0.5 energy per wear.

So what we are looking for here is durability, something The West used to do before getting hooked on chinesium and The Beatles.

I am sure though, Daily Mail will retort that a dashiki is good for the environment.

#11 I just finished a study that says scientists are bad for the environment and the equivalent of driving a car 60 miles a day.

Recommend immediate execution of all those scientists.
